Chapter 0414 Rivals in Paramount

The crazy nude party at sea will end before noon. The girls will be chartered back to Los Angeles, and Li Zitao and the three of them will take the Gulfstream One to Las Vegas.

"You need to think carefully about your relationship with Avril Lavigne. Even if you can't be a couple, don't become enemies." On the plane, Li Zitao persuaded Lawrence.

The Mellon family is not someone to be trifled with, even Rockefeller has to weigh it up.

This family's reputation in the United States is not as dazzling as that of Rockefeller and Morgan, but its influence in politics and business is by no means weaker than these two.

Avril Lavigne is Mellon's most favored youngest daughter, and the apple of Andrew Mellon's eye. If Lawrence was really accused of "playing with emotions," he would really suffer.

No matter what Andrew would do, I would have to break his legs first.

"I know." Lawrence said lazily while lying on the sofa.

My feelings for Avril are very complicated. She has a distinguished life experience, a good education, is young, beautiful, and knowledgeable. She is undoubtedly a good wife.

But he was not ready to get married. Whenever he thought about it, Lawrence always felt like he was going to be 'bound' and lose his freedom.

"You should learn from Charlie and I, and your occasional indulgence will be understood." Jonathan pointed at him and Li Zitao and said with a smile.

"Come on, if it weren't for Charlie, you would still be inseparable from Doris!" Lawrence rolled his eyes angrily.

Since their marriage, Jonathan and Doris have been basically inseparable, and parties and bars have disappeared from his life.

Except for his little secretary, the other women around him have probably been arranged clearly for a long time.

But the little secretary was just a little pastry left by Doris for him. If he was pushed too hard, it would be counterproductive. Smart women know this truth.

"Let Lawrence decide on the relationship. Tell us how your discussion with Conrad went." Li Zitao changed the subject.

It's really hard for outsiders to get involved in matters like relationships. Let alone friends, brothers will turn against each other, so let him make his own decision.

Just missing a girl like Avril, Li Zitao was afraid that he would regret it in the end.

"I agreed to the merger of Waldorf Astoria and Hilton. The specific details need to be discussed after I return."

The leaders of the two families have reached a verbal agreement, but the actual merger will take a long time.

Just the respective liquidation and review, submission of documents, division of rights, determination of equity proportions, etc. will take several months to negotiate.

However, after this news is released, no matter who it is, Waldorf Astoria or Hilton, it will greatly increase the value of the hotel.

I believe that Waldorf Astoria's stock price will rise slightly in the near future. This is a good opportunity to sell shares. I wonder if Jonathan will take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune.

However, the risks here are not small. If Conrad gets involved, it will directly affect his future shares and voice in the company.

The plane landed in Las Vegas before dinner, and we arrived in the city by car. The gray sky enveloped the future casino city, and there was flying dust everywhere.

The roar of machines and busy workers can be seen everywhere, and there are several clubs, bars and hotels with lights on that are already open for business.

At the entrance to the city stands the future most luxurious resort in Las Vegas, Caesars Palace, a resort integrating vacation, leisure, entertainment, and gambling.

It was invested and built by the Las Vegas Business Development Association, and the Chamber of Commerce is jointly owned by the Li Zitao, Duke and Mellon families.

There are also more than a dozen casinos invested and constructed by the Chamber of Commerce, such as Bellagio, Venice, Red Valley, Hualong City, Crown, and Treasure.

Others include dance halls, clubs, bars, performers' circuses, and museums.

These industries account for 70% of the construction in Las Vegas. It is not an exaggeration to say that this place is supported by three dominated chambers of commerce.

The car drove directly to the underground garage of Caesar's Palace. The guard quickly let them go after seeing the people clearly, finally allowing them to escape from the dusty street.

"Ahem... the air here is too bad." Lawrence ran out of the car and said, fanning the air in front of his face.

The sealing performance of today's cars is not ideal, so even if the doors and windows are closed tightly, their bodies are still covered in dust and become gray natives.

They took the elevator to the top floor and found everything in the presidential suite that was not yet open. The three of them took a shower and changed clothes, but looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

As long as you go out, you will inevitably become a native again, so what's the use of changing clothes?

"Charlie, you have to have someone specially design a sealed car, otherwise this kind of environment will not be favored by the rich." Jonathan stood in front of the window and looked outside and said.

"It will be much better after the roads are repaired and the greening is completed." Now the main dust is caused by construction. After all construction is completed, the environment will be greatly improved.

If that doesn't work, modifying a large passenger plane and conducting some artificial rainfall will definitely improve the situation significantly.

"That's a good idea." Lawrence clapped his hands and said.

If they complain again, they still have to go out. They didn't come here to stay in a hotel.

Starting directly from the underground garage, the dust made the visibility very poor. The car drove slowly and it took 20 minutes to reach the city center.

When they got off the car, the three of them turned into natives again, and all their previous efforts were in vain.

The latest one to open is Paramount in the city center. The interior decoration has been completed and the gambling equipment is almost finished.

Baccarat, Texas hold'em, blackjack, stud, roulette, and of course slot machines.

This machine was invented in 1985 by an automobile worker named Charlie Fee, and has evolved into dozens of different versions.

There is a 500-square-meter area inside Paramount, which is a dedicated gaming area with hundreds of slot machines.

Luxurious crystal chandeliers, golden paint embellishments, gorgeous decorations everywhere, plus bunny girls wearing bikinis and black stockings.

It immediately makes people feel like they are in another world. The cheerful music on the stage makes the blood speed up. I can’t wait to play a few games now.

Mary was sitting in front of the stage enjoying the performance, with the bunny girl waiting beside her. Doris and Avril were nowhere to be found.

Li Zitao quietly stepped forward, turned over from behind the sofa and sat next to her, hugging her waist playfully, "Hi."

"Oh... the way you came out is really surprising." Mary was so frightened that she shuddered and patted his chest with her hands, dumbfounded by her husband's childlike temperament.

"What are you doing?" Seeing her sitting here alone, Li Zitao asked curiously: "Where are Doris and Avril?"

"We just finished watching the band's performance, they are over there." Mary pointed to the gaming area on the right and said with gleaming eyes.

Looking in the direction of Mary's finger, Li Zitao saw Avril Lavigne clapping her hands in front of the slot machine. The machine in front of her seemed to be dispensing coins.

However, there was a strange man beside her. Judging from his extraordinary appearance, he must be from a big family. The two of them were talking and laughing and looked very close.
